Renault Trafic Common Problems & Tips
The Renault Trafic is a familiar sight around Melbourne’s south-east. A Cranbourne West workshop covers servicing the Trafic and the common things to watch.
About the Trafic
The Renault Trafic (van) is a popular choice with south-east Melbourne drivers, and it stays affordable to run when it’s serviced on time with the right parts and oils.
We look after the Trafic with the right parts, the correct oil and proper diagnostics — the same standard as the dealer, usually at a lower price.
Common Trafic service points
The things we keep an eye on with the Trafic: the diesel engine and DPF/EGR care, regular oil and filter services, the clutch and gearbox on manuals, brakes and suspension under load, and the cooling system. Catching the small things early on a Trafic is what keeps the big bills away.
We’ll show you what your Trafic actually needs, what can wait, and quote it in writing first — no surprises.
Servicing your Trafic & keeping the warranty
